Botched Extra Point Costs Herd On Senior Day

by Josh Lewis

Senior Day ended in heartbreak fashion for Marshall Saturday evening in a 28-27 loss to Southern Miss. Ryan Yurachek scored three touchdowns including a potential game tying score with just over a minute to play. However, a miscue on the snap on the ensuing extra point would be the difference in the game. The loss to the Golden Eagles marks a second straight week of heartbreak for the Herd. Last week Marshall lost to UTSA on a last second field goal. The Herd has lost it's last two games by a combined 3 points. Doc Holliday's team finishes the regular season 7-5.
